An old childhood friend of mine is coming over for a play date tomorrow. She works in acrylics and wants to learn more about creating backgrounds. While I didn't really create any backgrounds today, I messed around with acrylics - working on two similar pieces but different substrates and sizes.

I can hardly believe it's been over one month since I posted to my blog. Life gets in the way - working on a quilt; then there are taxes to deal with. Also, my husband and I spent quite a bit of time talking to our financial advisor and estate attorney. It's exhausting.

On my walk yesterday morning all I could think about was I want to paint something! and so today I did.

The background is acrylic - the foreground oil paints...I have a theme in mind - will share that once this baby is finished.

I started this piece a couple of weeks ago - my second oil painting. I must tell you that I love this one. She's entitled "She has a big heart (and nose)!"
